Former Dentist retired, needed followup on a root canal done by an endodontist. Had records forwarded from former dentist. Verified that new patients were being accepted, and that my dental insurance was accepted.

The appointment was for noon. I arrived about 15 minutes early as I expected there would be paperwork to complete. There was one two-sided form with a comprehensive set of questions about my health, which I filled out. I waited in the very nice lobby for about 20 minutes after the appointment time before being taken to see the doctor. He and I discussed the reason for the visit. He told me he had studied the notes from the endodontist the night before and thought of two approaches to followup. His office has also checked my dental insurance beforehand and knew that I was pretty close to my yearly coverage limit, so he suggest we go with a temporary filling that could wait until the beginning of the next year's coverage, thus keeping my out-of-pocket costs to a minimum. I agreed and told him I appreciated him looking out for my wallet as well as my teeth. He drilled out the very temporary material placed by the endodontist (without any anesthesia, since the root canal meant there were no nerves to disturb). He chatted about sports while he was working in my mouth, and asked me questions which I could not answer since he had his hands and equipment in my mouth (I don't know if many dentists do that; my former dentist always waited until I could speak before asking me questions.) He did a very good job on the tooth in question in about 20 minutes. I then proceeded to the checkout counter where I signed an insurance claim form and paid the balance with a check. In all, I was pleased with the experience. It was not stressful.

Dr Bryan Kaputa is my dentist.

He is very knowledgeable and a really good dentist. I've been going to him for probably 20 years. They call you and remind you of your appointment. They let you pay part of your bill if don't have all the money at the time, and you can split it up. Even if you call with an emergency, they will work you in. The reason I've started with them is because they had late hours and you don't have to miss work to visit the dentist.
